Very fun game to play even though most of the times I shoot the ball I had no idea in what direction she was going to go. Loved the music and it is indeed very soothing and relaxing
Great job!
Level design is on point. Only found one flaw in 2nd level where the ball can drop under the world, but as it spawns back on the floor, you can manage to continue the game. So, even with flaws, it stays right. The music is on point too! Visually, it's soft on the eye, not aggressive or anything.
Gameplay-wise, as it was said, it was a bit unruly, but still very useable, not glitchy or I didn't spot the glitches. It respects the theme very well, while staying playable. To be honest, I think this game can be speedrunned.
No really. Can't see any critics to do. To be honest, I would have loved to see this game get more time to develop and get more levels, maybe with harder difficulty or hurdles. Definitely could have been a seller.
The second level is a bit hard but globally it is not a problem... you do not expect to be a precise "golfer" using guns...
Just fyi : As there are no dead zone I could not use my old xbox 360 controller as the joystick is not well centered so I had to use the keyboard but I do not mind, a fps is played with keyboard/mouse (I just wanted to test how the controller felt)
Good job guys !
Great job team :D
I Managed to complete level 2 in just a little over 550 shots :D. I love how when you switch to the rocket launcher the music turns epic.
My only issue is when holding in escape it says "Hold the button to quit the game". But nothing happens :/
Besides that, great game! Job well done guys :)

Thanks you ! Like you said, once the ball get stuck, it's hard to get her out, but a good old bazooka can help you !
@ninjapenguindan
Thanks for your feedback, the first one is an harsh problem, we maybe should have make a forth weapons for really little distance ? Still don't know... For the RPG, it was indeed the last weapon who get debug, due to the "randomness" of the weapon by default, so , yes, he still don't do what we told him too, and, if you want, you can help us punish this bad weapons!
@mordokay
We know that you know that we know that you really achieve this game ! And hope you could relax without having to study !
@bradalli
Yes, I needed a bit more tweak to be more precise, but a lack of time and efficianty block us.
@elionagashi
Wow, all the teams thanks you back ! And Batagogo was the one to thank for the automatic respawn (well, a bandage on a open wound, but still, likeyou said : we can manage to continue the game). And more than speedrun, it's to make all in one bullet who could be super ultra mega impresive (turbo championship 2). And maybe we will make a "defenitive edition" of this game (turbo championship 2, of course)!
@drunkardwolf
Arsh, I totally forget to balance the speed of the mouse vs the joystick speed (yes, the game can be played one joypad) but, for the SMG, I totally agree, we need some tweaks to make it better, and cleaner !
@ultrabill
You bet, you sneaky ninja !
@gozz
The first shot is always the most important, it's a great lesson that I have learned.
You catch the concept of our game (even if, unfortunatly, we want to make it precise... We really don't know all that goes in this weird little baby born in 3 days)
And: argh ! I forgot to put back the dead zone !!! I knew I have forget something.... Damnsh!
@fran-segura
Thanks for the feedback ! We should probably fix that too... -look back at the list of everything that go wrong on this game as a developper- yeah... maybe....
But I hope you still enjoyed it !
@drikdrok
THANKS YOU ! YOU ARE GREAT ! And never stop use the SMG ! It's made for this ! No matter how many shot, only the success is important ! Yea- oh? The escape button didn't work ? Godammit, the coder will hear me ! Wait... I'm one of them... I will hear myself, it's gonna be tough !
More serously : normally it make 3 seconde to quit, so if it take longer, it's clearly a glitch... Sorry about that.
@captainpilot
Thanks for the feedback, yes, I know these little zone . I recommend to people to not go this way, it could be dangerous !
In a more serious tone, we should make it a way that it always came back to you (that the main reason that the second map is curve).
@dob
The randomness button was probably push too much ! But if it was not enough to ruin the fun, that's mean that our goal as a team to make people laugh and have fun , are achieve, and that : that's priceless. So thank you for playing our game !
@jk5000
We probably should have done more tweak, yes... You can change weapon but it's still need more tweak I think
@yirggzmb
The music help a lot, but to be sincere : I probably lost to much time just enjoying seeing this porr ball going to the moon !
@jimbly
Sorry for the mouse sensivity ! Should have fix that earlier... But I'm glad that you appreciate the large choice of club and realism we offer.
@arche-san
The first shot is the most importante one ! Our First Person Golfer provide a great experience of realism since the first stroke ! I hope you enjoyed the other club we offer to you !
@jima
Unfortunately, we work to make it clean but in the end it look like we've done a thing like : if(shot) then direction = random; force = random; noise = duck; when we actually made some raw and harsh math calculus. I mainly think that the bounce does the most of this weird un-predictiveness.
But I'm really glad that you enjoyed the game ! It's the main reason of what we make game !
@jacklehamster
Merci pour la vidéo ! Juste pour info : il est possible de changer d'arme en scrollant! Bonne chance sur youtube !
2) Give them lots of beer
3) Make them all play this game
4) Profit
1. Broken menu's (the mouse is hidden when going from game to menu's so you cant click anything
2. Floating plants
3. Hide and seek to find the hole
